Product Information

'This is a groundbreaking analysis of how social reproduction theory can deepen our understanding of everyday life under capitalism. It tackles issues such as child care, health care, education, family life and the roles of gender, race and sexuality, and shows how they are central to understanding the relationship between economic exploitation and social oppression. Leading writers including Lise Vogel, Nancy Fraser, David McNally and Susan Ferguson reveal the ways in which reproductive labour found in households, schools, hospitals and prisons sustains the drive for accumulation. Presenting an alternative to intersectionality, these ideas have implications for anticapitalists, antiracists and feminist attempting to navigate the ever more complex world we live in.'
